Lou Reed came from these streets.
In the mid-60s, when rock music was in euphoria over love, peace, and flowers, Lou Reed and
the Velvet Underground's terrain was the hard and raw [B] city.
[N] Lou Reed's music then and since has been the single most pervasive influence on the new
wave and modern rock music of today.
Tonight, Lou Reed returns.
